I have been taking classes with Etien for almost 2 months now and I have noticed good progress in my comprehension and pronunciation skills. Etien is very kind, patient, easygoing, and friendly. And although I stumble often at my current level, I feel comfortable making mistakes. Etien is good at understanding your current level and creates relevant connections so French concepts are more memorable. He also provides helpful feedback on my pronunciation and encourages me to try my best. Etien's classes provide me with structured lessons in a casual atmosphere. I always enjoy our classes and recommend him to others :)

Very patient, friendly and knowledgeable teacher. Very laid back and wonderful to talk to. Can't wait for the next lesson!! Thank you Etien!

Etien is a very energetic, musical, and helpful tutor! Provided a lot of resources and crammed a lot of good ideas into a 30-minute intro lesson. I was encouraged and challenged to speak what French I knew in this lesson, and even though I have used it very little since I was in school 20 years ago, I feel confident that I can do this! Definitely recommend.

Etien is incredibly patient and accommodating. As a professional musician, he speaks clearly and naturally, which really helps me since my primary goal is to improve my listening comprehension and learn everyday expressions, rather than formal textbook French. His high-quality microphone setup and lesson notes make practicing listening and shadowing much easier. I also appreciate his music recommendations, as they provide a fun and effective way to increase my exposure to Quebec French and get more natural input.

Etien's classes with me are very conversational. My French is at a fairly advanced level, so that is exactly what I'm looking for. He makes corrections as I go and summarises at the end.

Etien is super approachable and uses a lot of great tools (like custom made online flashcards and his own videos on Youtube) to support his students' learning. Merci Etien!
